We're taking on walk for wishes!

This June we are taking on the walk for wishes kids challenge to raise money for Make-A-Wish UK! 

Oliver has signed up to complete his very first charity fundraising event. We’re taking part in the Make-A-Wish Foundation Walk a Mile challenge, walking a mile every day throughout June.

We don’t have a personal story involving Make-A-Wish, but it’s a charity we’ve always supported.

I want to raise Oliver to understand the importance of kindness, community and helping others, and to know he can be part of doing something good and worthwhile for people who need it.

This year we’re hoping to raise funds for Make-A-Wish to help them reach more children with critical illnesses and make their wishes come true.

Absolutely loving his walk down by the river after nursery today.

Walk for Wishes - Week 1

Tuesday 9th Jun

It's been a busy first week, with walks taking us to Newbridge Fields, Cosmeston Country Park, Bute Park, Bryngarw Country Park and plenty of local walks in between. Oliver has even smashed his target most days walking more than 1 mile!

There was one small setback when a very sore blister earned him a rest day on day 3, but he quickly made up the distance and has now walked over 9 miles in total, in a pair of Crocs! 😂

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated and supported Oliver. It means a lot ❤️

Three weeks to go! 💙🚶‍♂️

Day 2 Complete! 💙

Tuesday 2nd Jun
Day 2 of Oliver's Walk for Wishes challenge is complete! After nursery today, we headed to Cosmeston to get our mile in. The weather was much better than yesterday luckily, and we enjoyed a lovely walk to the lake. Of course, no trip to Cosmeston would be complete without a stop at the park, so Oliver took a break halfway round for a cheeky play before carrying on. Oliver was full of energy today as always and happily completed another mile, bringing his total to over 2 miles in just two days. Thank you to everyone who is following along, donating, sharing, and supporting Oliver's challenge. Two days down, plenty more parks and lovely walks to come. Bring on Day 3! 🚶‍♂️🌟

Day 1 - Complete!

Monday 1st Jun

Walk for Wishes – Day 1 Complete!

Today marked the start of Oliver's Walk for Wishes challenge, where he will be walking a mile every day to raise money for Make-A-Wish.

The weather wasn't exactly on our side, with all the rain today, but Oliver did really well and didn't let the bad weather, or a few stones in his Crocs stop him. He completed his first mile along the woodland path next to Newbridge Fields.

A special thank you goes to Auntie Susie, who made Oliver's fantastic Day 1 challenge T-shirt, as well as all of his colourful flags. 

Day 1 is officially complete, and he's off to a great start. Thank you to everyone who has supported Oliver so far, whether through donations, encouragement, or simply following along on his journey.

One mile down, many more to go.

Bring on Day 2!

Because of You, Oliver’s Challenge Is Off to an Amazing Start!

Wednesday 13th May

Thank you so much to everyone who has already donated and helped Oliver exceed his fundraising target!

Oliver is so excited to get started, and we’ve got lots of lovely walks planned,  both locally and in some beautiful places, to help get those miles in while raising money and awareness for this amazing charity.

Make-A-Wish UK helps make wishes come true for children living with critical illnesses, and we’re so grateful for every bit of support. 💙

Thank you
